"Peregrines are birds that stretch the imagination."
Anonymous

"With its dark, keen-eyed stare and the metallic sheen of its beak, the peregrine creates an impression of power---
and so it should. Peregrines catch birds in flight, a livelihood that calls for intelligence, agility, speed, and a fiery
spirit."
Candace Savage

"Everyone adores the falcon's beauty."
Ancient Egyptians

"The peregrine is a fierce, uncompromising bird with razor-sharp vision and talons to match. Diving at more than
200 kilometres an hour, this falcon knows no living equal for speed."
Adrian Forsyth

"It's part of what makes tham special. Peregrines are mystic birds."
Stan Cuthand

"People say they are the fastest birds in the world---the cheetahs of the sky."
Candace Savage

There are sea birds, inland water birds, land birds, building birds, woods birds, bush birds, and ground birds. The
peregrine is a sky bird."
Peter Parnall

"Falcons in the wind have given us flight dreams. Could I ever see enough of their powerful twisting wings, of
that passionate aerial dance?"
James T. Harris

"But though they are widespread, peregrines, like tigers, are always rare. To see one is a privilige."
Adrian Forsyth

"To the ancient Egyptians, falcons were sacred birds and were sometimes mummified, as important people were."
Candace Savage

"Just as wolves and humans are built for chase on the ground, so peregrines are designed for pursuit through the
air. Or, to make the comparison more dynamic, they are the dolphins or the sky, sinuous and zestful in flight.
Their long, sharp-cut wings are shaped for speed and free-flowing turns."
Candace Savage

"Rough and daring as hunters, peregrines are gentle with their young, and feed them with extraordinary
tenderness."
Candace Savage

"This bird, to my mind, is the epitome of the avian kingdom. Embodying every quality except size, it is supreme
among birds."
Author Unknown

"We can create the future we need under the falcon's wing."
Candace Savage

"Her body is designed for aerobatics and speed. She is both dive-bomber and ighter with thuder in her talons, and
there is immense pleasure not only in developing her battle "know how" until in exceeds even that of her wild
cousin, but in watching her speed across the heavens, shepherding quarry this way and that until it is exactly
placed for the 'stoop,' the devastating plunge from as much as a thousand feet up culminating in the strike that
sends quarry hurtling lifeless to earth."
Frank Illingworth

"Bring us hope, bright falcon. Give us the will to act."
Candace Savage
